    That is some top-notch writing, Sean.

    NOOOOO Comedy, Please!

    Ah, Square Pegs. When Sarah Jessica Parker was just a young foal.

    I enjoyed the show (thanks for the Hulu link, Todd). I can see how future episodes might be formulaic, but I don't think that would make it any less watchable. Watching an inventor's idea go from conception to production is pretty fascinating, and I appreciated the inventor/designer conflicts. I think reality TV needs

    You know it's true. Everything I do… I do it for you.

    I don't understand why HBO would air the pilot episode at the end of a season. It doesn't make sense especially since it's revealed that "Hey now" is something Hank just started saying, yet a HBO viewer would have been subjected to the catch phrase all season.

    Season 2, Episode 8: Hot Enough For You?

    Great
    Now I want Tim Tams (available at Target!).

    I was also unimpressed. It's not terrible, but I don't understand how it made the cut.

    Never bet on "safe."

    Slow down there, buddy
    You say you've been in the casino business for thirty years AND you know Phil Ivey? Those are two mutually exclusive, and therefore awesome, facts.

    There, there, Mike n' Molly. Put on some Salt n' Pepa and open up a box of Good n' Plenty.

    Yeah! Hit the road, Helen Mirren!

    I found this album to be inessential. I enjoyed 2/5 of the songs. The other 3/5 bored me. Organ Music is not nearly as engaging as the Shit Drums EP.

    Fun Fact: Christina Applegate is made of 80% apples and 20% gates.
